You guys need a new batch of testers, are they the ones who greenlit the season 2 Hex? How are they not fired lmao.
A lot of them have been playing the game since before it released. There's a real mix of players, but a lot of them are super familiar with the game and active in the community.
Unfair to blame them because you personally don't like something.
Yeah, I'm kinda disappoint in how Mediatonic community managers, I especially remember u/OliverAge24Artist doing this, responded to people's criticisms of this change. Instead of saying that they acknowledge it and will take it into cosideration they act like your average Reddit high IQ debator by trying to point out one flaw in what people have to say and trying to make it into a gotcha.
Overall I've seen Mediatonic people on here getting defensive about people criticising the changes and trying to defend why they are the way they are, rather than debating how the game could be improved, which I'm kinda disappointed by.
We listen to all the feedback, and we're happy to take it on board. This subreddit was particularly toxic for a couple of days after the launch of the update though. It's calmed down a bit which is awesome to see. The community team isn't really supposed to just be here as a punching bag for whatever people want to throw at us.
There's a massive difference between personally attacking us, calling us incompetent, lazy, speaking on behalf of the entire community, etc...
It's a vocal minority right now that are upset about the fan on Jump Showdown, and from our side, we really don't think it makes things more random, since it's another constant.
You can dislike it, that's completely fine. We tested it internally, and we tested it with our community of playtesters. Nobody scored it less than 3/5.
We're monitoring the response and we'll keep it in mind while thinking about our overall player base.
At the same time, we can't please everyone. We ha...
Read moreDownloaded it and gave it a go, I'm 97% sure that it's just a single-player game faking multiplayer using bots. There's absolutely no latency/ping/rubberbanding AT ALL.
We're working on improving the physics and will hopefully be able to share some insight into specifically what we're working on early next week.
That said, it's literally impossible for an online physics-based game to perform as well as an offline single-player one.
lol I'm really curious now - it has a party mode - I kind of wanna get a party together to test the theory lol. It's just how smooth it is when you're playing solo and the fact that they all play the game like bots that made me think it was.

Very much agreed. Pretty sure you need to do these for like a rather short duration (or hey, idea, have that as a playlist only accesible for certain hours during the week for exemple), when people usually aren't at work. Otherwise it'll indeed just be a streamers only event, since they can just play for a lot more hours than anyone else.
Is difficult with timezones though...
I wonder if there's a way to factor in how much time Vs wins/losses.
Too complicated to do that for now, but something to think about!
I get it, but people wanted personal stats more than the weekly top holder, because the majority of the player base doesn't even have 7 wins, do you think they care about the players who have 2k+ wins, each and every one of them are streamers, I don't give a f**k about them, I wanna see my round qualification percentage, each round gold medals, win percentage, etc, there are so many cool statistics to have rather than 'weekly crown league'.
I would LOVE to have it available in the game for everyone when the Devs get a chance to work on that. Until then, I can only tweet a limited number of players. Can't exactly tweet everyone's personal scores unfortunately!
u/oliverage24artist I NEED ANSWERS
Same!!! Please can you send it to our support team?
They are trying to help us prioritise bugs by how many reports they get through!
Thanks!
More pandering to casuals.
lol you do realise 76% of players have never won a single game?
Why is it that crowns from the season 3 pass count, but not crowns from the season 1 & 2 passes?
Unfortunately, we didn't keep a record of them at the time, nor a record of what level every player got to. So we can't go back and add them on based on everything.
Hop in, we're going to crown town!
Oh God, the YouTube account is run by Alan and the man tells it how it is lol
Maybe fall guys isn’t right for people with motion sickness? This game as a whole does not cater to people who don’t like fast spinning things, bright flashing colors and quick movements.
Ruining a final because of a few people isn’t the play.
There are hundreds of fast spinning things that can make you dizzy in fall guys (JSD, etc).
You don’t even have to move your camera in roll off to play and win, I don’t and it’s much easier.
Also, I do have panic attacks because of video games so please don’t assume I’m mocking. I did label my post [Serious].
Also you:
This was obviously satire dude.
I don't have the ability to delete this thread but I would if I could.
Mocking people for having Motion Sickness in video games is gross.
Mocking people who genuinely suffer from anxiety and panic attacks is gross.
Please try to have some empathy.
Thanks, people keep calling it RNG when it's actually the literal opposite of random.
The fan moves at a predictable and reliable speed. It's a constant. Just like the bars.
The only random things on this level are which platforms will fall, and the actions of other players. Both of these things have always been in this level.
Timing out is not supposed to be how finals end. That was just added to ensure that matches don't continue for ridiculous amounts of time.
If people were timing out often - it means that the round was too easy.
You not gonna buy the bulletkin thoooooo?
i've had jobs where the team works on turns to cover every hour of every day while the service is running (24/7, like an online videogame is), because someone thought it was not convenient to take two days to fix an issue when it is presented, to be able to respect our customers, as we have a deal with them since the day they buy the service.
we can become friends and talk about personal stuff, but i don't think it adds a lot to this subject <3
How many people did you have on the team in order to have 24/7 coverage of all departments?
That's not a dig or anything, I'm genuinely curious!
I feel like if we tried to do that with the team we have right now, it'd make it really tricky to keep everyone coordinated. We have a lot of meetings where specific people need to be present or where you're relying on other people to feedback, or answer questions.
It feels like if everyone is working staggered shifts, it could really slow production down?
I feel like this kind of thing should have an easy instant fix? like, send the shop update again or whatever. or press the "GIV DR PANTS TO PLAYARS NOW" button
having to wait until next week so they start investigating sounds terrible, even if it's Saturday today
You're correct, it's a simple fix - One of the devs has actually made the change. The only thing now - we need someone to push it live.
The thing about pushing a fix live on a weekend is that you never know if it might accidentally break something else, or something could go wrong...
So, while it seems like a really easy and small fix... there's still a decent amount of risk... which isn't ideal on a Saturday when everyone is meant to be off work.

Humans make mistakes and the devs are humans too.
I'd argue a lot of stuff goes right, and a small amount goes wrong. You only really notice it when things go wrong though.
Yes
